Talking about Ford India’s marketing strategy to create an integrated campaign, Nigel E Wark, executive director, Marketing, Sales and Services said, “True to its concept, the Discover Smart Drive enabled the lucky couples to explore smart things about India along with smart features of the Figo. Using an integrated approach involving digital, marketing and our growing dealer network, we were able to take the Figo to consumers’ doorstep and have multiple positive conversations on new mediums.”

Seen as the success, the drive was successful in driving positive conversations around the brand and resulted in increasing Figo’s fan base on Facebook to over 15,000 people. Over 600 updates posted on the experiential drive and resulted in showcasing key Figo differentiators such as spaciousness, fuel economy and air conditioning from over 5,000 comments across social networking sites.

“The response that we have got from this campaign has taken Figo’s popularity to a different level. We thank our online supporters also in this endeavour. Figo has been the top-selling vehicle in five out of seven months, since its launch and we wish to sustain this phenomenon.” Wark concluded.
